No not at all lol I ordered a carb kit. I had it going good but now it's kinda all or nothing. I burned 12oz of fuel in 90 seconds
. Hopefully a carb kit will fix the issues

Didn't think a saw could burn that much fuel in 90 seconds and still run. You sure there isn't a hole in that tank?Beast mode
Yea I have looked, no leaks. There's a lot of fuel coming out the exhaust too. I know Remingtons are gas hogs but this one takes the cake
Funny thing was it was using bar oil equally with the gas
Someone has asked me to look at a leaky/hard to oil SL11. Two questions:
1) Does anyone have a good IPL I can look at?
2) Any ideas on this model about a leaky/stiff oiler?
Thanks,
Mark

My oilers work not work off and on. Sometimes it's the pick up filter in the tank. Il
Thank you Ray.

Let us know what you come up with. I'm always having oiling issues
. One day working perfectly the next time not so much and so on
Got the carb kit installed for decent idle and adjustments now. But unfortunately I am experiencing the bar oil in the combustion chamber now 
. It's just a check valve ball and spring I believe. Hopefully just cleaning it will resolve the issue could have contamination on in it. The old pick up filter fell off the hose in the tank I will install new one once I clean and inspect the check valve. Won't be for a few days/week I'm guessing till I can get back on it

As you can see it's a bit smokey and only got smokier as I continued and could see bar oil coming out from the muffler and compression release I thought the video was longer but I must of bumped the button and it stopped View attachment VID_20240229_164910194.mp4
I'm still using a lot of fuel too

I have one of those saws and an SL-9, and a CUT-R-RITE demo saw Remingtons.
Came across this last week. I bought it more for the bar but it did fire off with fuel down the carb.
Wow nice saw fs
Still struggling with the sl10a. So the check valve is not working right and oil in intermittently getting into the cylinder. Crazy part is when that's happening I'm burning like a full tank of gas in like 2-3 mins and oil too. I ran the saw without bar oil in it and no smoke and the gas isn't being used as fast as before. I have a nos check valve with a duckbill but I am not sure if that will work or not because there is only one valve on it. All my other auto oiler Remington saws have 2 check valves. So I'm stumped
Well that idea of swapping won't work. Different size valve 
Found my troubles the spring isn't staying centered creating a leak when the ball is all the way up. Not sure how to fix that
